There are a few things you should verify here first and below is the steps I have used. #1 Verify that the current draw of the solenoid does not exceed 5 amps at 24Vdc which I am pretty sure the Form C contact on the HAI relay board is rated for. #2 You will need a power source that matches the...

I just run Windows on a Virtual Machine (VMWare) in my MAC and PC Access works fine. I am able to run PC Access, UPStart and Russound apps in the windows environment on my Mac.

Biggest thing is to make sure you have a neutral wire in every switch box. This way if you decide to go UPB you will be covered. In many cases they carried the power to the light then just ran the hot wire down to a switch to break for turning the light on and off.

Wanted to see what other users maybe going to as their CAV6.6 units go out for distributed video and audio. Our system is currently a CAV6.6 with six sources and six zones. The complete system is connected to an HAI OmniPro for distributed control along with keypads in the zones.   The new...

If you are using Snaplink on an I-Phone simple process. Go to the CONTROL screen and press edit in upper right hand corner. Then select the flag you want to hide and a red box will come up that says "Hide" select this hit done and it will not appear in the list again. You can always bring it...

You can use the EVERY command to trigger a automation event based on time interval. I am using this to make sure the thermostat stays at a preset setting when we are away. Was having an issue with maintenance people coming in and lowering the setting while working then forgetting to set it back...

Thanks for the recommendations exactly what I was looking for.   Work2Play you hit the nail on the head. My plan is to set this up where it is portable. Hook it up when we head to the pool area and disconnect when not using. That should limit the time the it is available for hacking.

This question maybe a little off the original topic but does have to do with Long Distance wifi. Looking for advice on selecting equipment to extend my wifi from my condo to the pool which is located about 500-600' away. Just want to be able to connect at the pool I-Pad and Laptop. I will have...

The other thing to make sure is if you go UPB that your contractor pulls a neutral (white) wire to every switch box. The other suggestions are right on target for making UPB very reliable.

Updates and fixes to Omnipro have been fairly regular and keeping up to date. The other packages have been lacking.

I second the point. Would have purchased WMC if it had ever been updated for W7.

Frunple,   I never came across an all command, would be nice. I had to create seperate message instructions for each blind to open and close it. I have never seen any mention of the status being reported back from the RTS motor. If the red led on the face of the URTS is not blinking then the...

Thanks for the sanity check. That is basically what I had came up with my investigation. Setup menu is confusing as it leads you to believe you have have multiple sensors but the wiring only shows one. But the documentation for the remote sensors seem to indicate you can hook-up muliple sensors...

Can you hookup more than one remote temperature sensor to the RC-2000? In the installation guide I see where you can wire up a remote sensor to the thermostat on terminals 10 & 11. It mentions this takes an average of the on board sensor and the remote sensor. However when I look at the setup...

I also have the same issue with both of the RC-2000 units we have, they have been installed 2-3 years. What I have seen is the cycle works when you are coming out of cooling mode. So during the summer when the unit has been cooling then reaches setpoint and shuts off the cycle works. However in...
